Alice Street Learning Center

This child development center, a venture of the City of Oakland, Oakland Unified School District, and Head Start, takes advantage of the East Bay Municipal Utility District’s generous offer of the donation of their recently vacated downtown customer service center. Two providers, offering infant, toddler and preschool programs, occupy three classrooms, an infant care area, kitchen, and support space. A seismic study was performed and an upgrade was designed and constructed, including new shear wall, relocated and improved HVAC, thoroughly redesigned interior, and an art component. G/A provided the space planning, full design, contract documents, and construction observation services.
